Detailed explanation-1: -Asexual reproduction generates offspring that are genetically identical to a single parent. In sexual reproduction, two parents contribute genetic information to produce unique offspring.
Detailed explanation-2: -How are inherited characteristics passed on? Inherited traits are carried in your genes. Parents pass on these genes to their children, who then pass them onto their future children, and so on. This genetic information is carried in the form of DNA, which stands for ‘deoxyribonucleic acid’.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is passed down from the father in the sperm. The DNA in these cells is haploid i.e. n. When they fertilize it becomes 2n. This ensures that the genetics from both the parents is passed on without disturbing the chromosome number.
